My wife's first vehicle was a vintage beetle. She said it would barely drive up a hill with her friends in the car. No way it's legit towing a 5th wheel. It wouldn't even have the stopping power to avoid running a red light. Transmission would be shot pretty quickly.

Before I was born my Dad had a Scout. He said it was the worst, coolest, and most fun car he ever had.

Lancia Stratos. Basically an off-road Ferrari.

The Pontiac Aztec is one of the shittiest looking cars ever produced in my opinion. Even the depiction of the concept car in your post looks like shite. I have no idea what is so special about them or how they were ever given the green light for production. They had such poor sales they started giving them away (temporarily) for people to provide feedback and to try to boost sales. The Ford Edsel is 1000x better than this POS. I don’t know why but if I had a vehicular nemesis it would be the Aztec…I fricking hate it.

I am seeing more and more of them. Now that the summer update is out I think more people are going to start to fall in love with these vehicles. I hate I missed out on the $59k special they had.

This is a 1971 VW Bus but honestly there is a large window of years I would drive. Its a shame the new VW bus is electric, crappy range, and way too expesnive.

Modern vehicle? Pontiac Aztec.

At high school, in the early 60s, the boys would eagerly wait for the girl who had one of these Isetas, to arrive and carefully exit with a dress on.

Suzuki Jimny

Rented one for a week in BVI, standard transmission.

Was actually fun to drive. Good build quality too.

Don’t think the top was removable, never even thought about checking. It was October and still hot there.

They’d sell here pretty well if they were offered.
